Here's the mask

A few painted ones :

Hello Speedy:

Thanks for sharing those units, complete with their base icon and mask. They fill a gap in the always interesting Italian armored vehicles subject!

Based on the vanilla icon for the Semovente 105-25 that is way too «cramped» to my taste, I've tried to make it more proportionate and added a 75mm gun to it. Here's a few colored units with the original icon and mask for those who want to use it.

interesting unit.
did the Germans capture him in Italy in 1944?

Yes, the Germans even had the production of this SP gun continue, not many of them though. According to Tank Encyclopedia 11 to 15 were built

Nice icons speedy! Like those Italian stuff…


Guillermo, If you like to polish again…

Here comes the M3A1 Scout Car with the open version and machine gun outside:

...and with the "camping" version and tent rolls:

The wheels got also a little bit more light, the basic version it's too dark.

Greetings!

Hello Asuser:

Thanks for shaing your latest work! This variant looks more "warlike" with its heavy machine gun mounted on top of the vehicle. The wheels are very much improved, and also, the external stowage items are excellent looking details.

Interesting version, T5E1 mortar carrier!

Thanks uzbek for sharing!

The first version of the Sherman medium tank which was in service was the M4A1. It was introduced in US Army forces service in February 1942...

Yes, I know that fact... After some reserach I cound not find any Sherman in Soviet service illustration that showed other than plain green paint. But, as an "artist´s license", I decided to make an SE variant for this thank, using the same camo scheme as the other Soviet SE vanilla game units use. What indeed was historically accurate is that there were complete Guards tank units that were issued Sherman tanks (which, by the way, were liked by their crews), so Guards units in real WWII = PzCorps SE units.

Yes Sherman tanks were used in the red army and even Soviet tankers loved them ) There is such a book tanker on a foreign car ) But that would be painted as something special not met )

The Soviet AT-1 Sp gun, made switchable, in direct and indirect fire modes, and "dressed" in regular green and camo SE colors...

Beautiful units but your Soviet units seem a little too dark, especially at the tracks(Soviet AT-1 Sp gun) ?

Hello Terminator:

Thanks for your feedback! Always, the opinion from another person, makes me see mistakes I could not detect or just helps me improve the unit icons...

About the units darkness, when I compared this version of the icon (the plain green colored) with the vanilla game one, it looked just a little bit darker, but definitely not at the tracks (all the vanilla game icons show this part as an almost totally black "shadowed" part of the vehicle in question). Anyway, I modified the base icons (I made the gun casemate a little lower becuse it looked too high) and made the units a little lighter. Also remember that I always deliver the icons with their bsic icons and masks to allow each player/modder to give the color they like to units to fit the rest of units used in their maps.

Well, you and any other interested forum member can download again the unit pack from my previous posting (I replaced the files). Sorry for the inconvenience.

PS: I will soon upload a complete file with all the up-to-date unit icons from "my" collection. Today if possible...

Uzbek: Also thnks to you for your positive comments and interesting reference links!
